Huge fight erupts in city centre after man accused of ‘abusing pigeons’
This is the moment a massive fight broke out after an argument about some pigeons.
The punch-up was filmed by bystanders in Glasgow’s George Square and footage of the incident which happened on Tuesday was posted to social media.
The video shows a man accusing people of abusing pigeons and abusing animals.
Two other young men then approach the man in question as one of them then grabs an outdoor chair from Wetherspoon and throws it near the older man.
It then skips to show one of the younger men grab a Wetherspoon flagpole, who then lobs it at the older man.
A fight then breaks out between all the men but then the older man takes them both out, sending them tumbling to the ground.
One of the younger men throws a chair at the older man which hits him and he then shouts: ‘You’re abusing pigeons, you c****’.
The two younger men then leave the scene.
Police Scotland confirmed an investigation into the incident has been launched.
